Effective & Creative Math, English, Writing, Reading Tutor

I have taught children in 1st-3rd grade to read using a phonics program that breaks down words into sounds. They are taught to read using these sounds and can read virtually any word, whether it is a familiar word or not. I have worked with this program in a classroom setting and with small groups of children and individuals. I have taught children as young as 4 years old to read using this method. With over 2000 hours spent tutoring students in the last 3 years, I often hear comments like these: "She enjoys working with you!" and "His grades have improved!" I am experienced in working one-

Bridget A. C., M.Ed. Orton-Gillingham Certified Comp and Adv

As a Reading Specialist, one of the most important aspects of reading and understanding is to increase knowledge in all five areas of learning to read. Those five areas are Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Fluency and Comprehension. With all of these items in place, students can chunk and break words into pieces to sound them out. Also, the ability to manipulate sounds and construct new words will help as a student becomes more fluent. I am certified in Orton Gillingham in both the Comprehensive (level 1) and Advanced (level 2). I have worked in the education field in many capaciti

Bilingual Elementary Teacher- All subjects and Spanish

With experience as a teacher in a bilingual Spanish classroom (in both grades 2 and 3), I have encountered students new to this country with varying levels of literacy skills. Therefore, I have ample experience teaching phonics in both English and Spanish through centers, guided reading and word study. For students with little or no literacy skills in their native language of Spanish, I began with phonics in Spanish. For students who had a foundation in Spanish, I taught them English phonics.
